Light Bar / Roll Bar ???
 
Where can you find a 80s STX push bar and roll bar?
Is there a store that sells them?

no one... for THAT bar. you can get a roll bar from truck accessory's, and a center push bar similar to it from jcwhitney thats where mine is from

yes, you are going to have to do a lot to your truck so it looks like a 4x4 stx highboy. also, your truck is a 2wd. your going to lift it?

Snow Wolf Dec 19, 2006 06:31 PM

yes i'm go to lift it
i just like the looks of the 1st gen stx

free bump for another older ranger...

if you find any of that stuff, let me know...I've got a '91 and looking to get the roll bar if it's not that expensive

telemaster1952 Dec 20, 2006 06:32 AM

check the local junkyards

i was thinking on getting a roll bar too for my 94 but its extended cab and i dont want it to make my truck look long or small.

Ehh, you could try browsing local classifieds daily.

I found a local seller with two '89 STX's; one of which had a push bar/brush guard that I scored for $25 (but need a little love).

Doesn't it currently look like it......or is it just me? Guess you changed your avatar to a pic of your current Ranger.

First off.......lose the topper and ladder. Gonna need some flap style mirrors or newer style ones. Maybe some bigger tires and nice rims.

Gonna need a lot of work, but it's definatly a good project truck.

Snow Wolf Jan 17, 2007 12:17 PM

this is how i wont my truck to look

Looking at the pics, This is what's obvious to me (and probably to you):

-paint your front end's chroms accents black - $30 of rattle cans or $700 maaco job to do the whole truck
-hunt, hunt, hunt, and hunt junkyards for a brush guard (or fab your own)...make it silver and add lights- $50-$250
-4x4 blocks, u-bolts, and 4x4 shocks in the rear (get these off a used stx for cheap) - $30-$60
-2" coils in the front or factory spacers - $20-$150
-15x7 bullit style aluminum wheels w' 235x75x15 all terrain tires and raised white lettering
-hunt, hunt, hunt, or fab your own roll bar and add square lights - $$??$$

-lose the rainbow stickers

I'd say the roll bar is your toughest and most expensive feat. Is that it?

Snow Wolf Jan 18, 2007 12:18 PM

+ I'm going to put at lest a 302 in it

like to put a SVO 392 stroker in it but it up to the $$$$$$

hey, any updates on this project?

I'm throwing in the towel and going to buy a tacoma down the road.

this is as far as I got with mine:

Attachment 208697

it has:
-235x75x15 tires on gen1 STX 15x7 wheels
-factory STX push bar with brush guard attachments
-universal off-road lights on the push bar
-universal grizzly roll bar w' universal rectangular driving lights

All that I really had left to do was lift the thing 3.5" and I would've gotten the STX look.
